Coinmine s specs are middling.
Gpu mining solar panels.
6 gpu rig with solar power.
As pcs consume a huge lot of energy and those who don t are equipped with atom and intel graphics meaning mining won t get you far with that equipment.
I always was trying to waste my electricity in the summer with my one little 80 watt solar panel.
Solar panels and mining.
Enjoy the rewards while they last.
It largely depends on what machine you want to power with those solar panels.
At this rate the bitcoin network runs at 342934450 watts which equates to around 343 megawatts.
It uses less power than a playstation 4 at 120 watts and its gpu mining is usually demanding on your graphics card is an amd radeon rx570 a card you d find in a college student s entry level gaming tower.
You re definitely going nowhere with gpu based mining.

When i say rough i mean rough the idea is so terrible i can be off a lot and still be fine.
Free power clean air and a beautiful world.
Let s go with that number and assume you live in a sunny ish city in us.
Calculations based on eia data reveal that the average us household consumes about 1 2 kilowatts of power meaning that 343 megawatts would be enough to power 285 833 us homes at the time of writing may 2015.
Well solar is a terrible idea to ponder about mining all types of solar mass produced today.
However if your fans are at 100 to do this then the bearings will wear out at some point.
In most places in us the power from solar energy you can get on an average day is about 5 kwh m 2 day 1.
Stage 1 3 completed thanks to community for their support more gpus on the way.
So i will do some super rough calculations.
If you keep the gpu limited to below 70c perhaps higher it will be fine even for extended periods of time.
The lifespan of a gpu when mining 24 7 will be down to the fan speed.
Most free electricity comes from having excess power from some renewable resource like solar panels you ve got on your roof in the summer or wind power on extra windy days.
Gpu mining and hope you all actually stay and contribute to the community.
It also takes cheap electricity to make a profit in mining right now.
That means that the wattage you get out of the solar panels is aro.
